Got Accepted To Bu Today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[RupeshV]

Hey guys,

Well after four years of trying to get into dental school, it finally happened today!!!!!!!!! I got the fed ex package from BU after being put on the waitlist in march. It still has not hit me that I am going to be a dentist. To give you a little history of my life, here goes: I messed up in college and had a 2.8 gpa, then went to grad school at BU school of medicine and worked my ass off and earned a 3.4 gpa while taking some hard classes like Physio, Biochem, Endocrin, Pathology, Immuno, etc just to show that i can handle the work. I scored a 19 on the DAT's. I did research at BU dental school and collaborated with Harvard medical school in which my paper will be published soon. Anyways, all I am saying is that if you work your ass off and put in the hours, it will all pay off at the end.

Anyways, I had a little too much to drink, so I don't know if I am making any sense, but I am so relieved and ready to start working even harder now. Thanks for all the help!!!!

There you go man...finally after a long wait.... Congratulations.....

 

[RupeshV]

Thanks for all the support and kind words. Yeah, it definetly took awhile to get accepted. All I can say is never give up and if you want something bad enough- all you have to do is work hard.

To all those who have low gpas, think of doing a masters as well as research and try to build relationships with the faculty and staff. That is what I did and it helped me out in a big way

 

[jenl81]

Congratulations !!!! You sure deserve it after all of your hard work!

 

[dippedindettol]

congrats dude

 

[MedicineNutt]

So did you go to medical school before gettting accepted to dental school? or you just took classes with medical students? sorry for the lame question...

BUT Congrats and i hope you make it through dental school!!

 

[RockstarDMD]

That is awesome. Congrats!!!!!!

 

[Missserica]

this made my day. i am so happy for you!

this is just the beginning ... but, enjoy your summer and get ready for dental school! yeah!

 

[StephL26]

Congrats, man!

Questions: did you get waitlisted the first time due to GPA? DAT? experience? essay? LOR's? or other reasons? Sorry for the questions, but I'm basically in the same boat, and just submitted my AADSAS 2007 (I'm a reapplicant from 2006- reasons of "rejection", as told to me by admissions, was the late submission), but I plan to get higher DAT.

Thanks! And congrats again!

Hey RupeshV-I'm really happy for you, I know you were nervous about it. Did you try to get into dental school 4 yrs in a row? Good luck and again Congratulations!!!

That's awesome Rupesh...congrats!!!

 

[RupeshV]

hey guys,

to answer some questions, yeah I applied four years straight, I raised up my gpa by doing a two year masters program with a research thesis and also raised up my DAT scores. The admissions officers told me to enroll in a masters program in order to bring up my gpa and let them know that I can handle the courseload. I continued to work at a dental office- and went on mission trips to different places for the experience.

Wow, if that's not dedication, I don't know what is! It's funny, we've never met, but I'm truly happy for you I can't imagine the relief you must be feeling..and to be going to BU which is a great school, that's awesome!!!

CONGRATS! See ya this fall. To everyone else going to BU, have you received your packets in the mail yet? I still have not received anything but my tuition invoice of course. Just wondering if I am still the only one that has no idea what is going on and I am leaving on Wednesday to head up for Excel!

[remify]

congrats! getting dental school is like trying to get into any competitive medical program. you might get turned down a few times if your credentials aren't great. however, if you want it badly and work hard enough, eventually a school or schools will accept you.

congrats again and good luck!
